    Frank,
    I have a 91 Camry (V6) sitting in my driveway right now that had what started out as a similar problem with yours but from there went from bad to worse. I had owned two Camrys before getting this one and never had electrical problems. If there was just one window involved I would say that you just have a window motor going bad but since you are having problems with more than one window I would guess a relay. Mine started the same way yours did, the window on the drivers side started to slow and then quit. From there the driver's side auto seat belt would not retract and the power door locks quit. I had my car checked by more than one mechanic and I was told that all fuses were good and that there was power getting to the door panel. The final determination was that I had a bad main relay, which by the way is located behind the dash. (no way I was going to sink a lot of money into it. Good thing as the tranny later gave out)
    I don't know if any of this helps. Good luck and please post what the problem turns out to be.

    gotbuick What, me worry?

    I will second the notion that it's NOT an individual window causing the whole system to go slow. Toyota's are pretty bulletproof. I would guess one of two things off hand. Maybe a bad ground. You guys do get some corrosion in the mid west. My second guess is an intermittent problem with the alternator. It takes a bit of juice to run the windows.

    Hope this helps. :Comp:
